I've never actually witnessed that. It absolutely should work that way. But I'm not sure it does.
I've seen RM systems cause a flight to be J0
substantially in advance of the flight, even positive space. I've seen overbooked J cabins. But I've never seen, on day of departure, a J0 flight that had positive space in J (unless it was massively overbooked in the back).
Again, I don't know for sure. But I've certainly seen situations where a flight gets cancelled, the next flight was J4, and it stays J4. At least until 4 people call and get rebooked.
